A Phase 2 Study of Intravitreal AVD-104 in Diabetic Macular Edema

April 23, 2024 updated by: Aviceda Therapeutics, Inc.

A Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Treatment Effect of Intravitreal AVD-104 in Participants With Diabetic Macular Edema

A Phase 2 study to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of intravitreal injections of AVD-104, a novel glyco-mimetic nanoparticle, in reducing macular edema associated with diabetic retinopathy.

Detailed Description

The primary objective is to evaluate the tolerability and treatment effect of intravitreal injections (IVT) of AVD-104 in participants with diabetic macular edema (DME). Participants will receive either three intravitreal injections of low-dose AVD-104 (1.0 mg) each 28 days apart or two intravitreal injections of AVD-104 at a high-dose (2.0 mg) 56 days apart. Serial optical coherence tomography (OCT), ultra wide-field fluorescein angiography, and OCT-angiography (OCT-A) will be performed to evaluate the treatment effect on central subfield thickness (CST) and areas of non-perfusion. All participants will be followed-up for safety until day 84.

There will be a planned enrollment up to 30 participants.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Low dose AVD-104
Three intravitreal injections at 1.0 milligram per eye each 28 days apart will be administered to the study eye. Participants will be followed for 84 days total.
An intravitreal injection of 50 microliters at the doses described will be given. Visual acuity, optical coherence tomography thickness and vascular perfusion will be evaluated for an effect of the drug.
Experimental: High dose AVD-104
Two intravitreal injections at 2.0 milligrams per eye 56 days apart will be administered to the study eye. Participants will be followed for 84 days total.
An intravitreal injection of 50 microliters at the doses described will be given. Visual acuity, optical coherence tomography thickness and vascular perfusion will be evaluated for an effect of the drug.
